Chapter 0139 - Crime? Isn't that what it is?
Liu Ying didn't know anything about Tian He's trigrams.
If he knew, Liu Ying would definitely pat Tian He's shoulder in surprise.
- Regardless of the last one, the first two things really let Tian He use the number of divination to figure it out.
If nothing else, in another month, the Linzi Tian clan who was among the seven heroes during the Warring States Period, leaving the allusion of the 'Tian clan to Qi' in later generations, saw that only Tian He was left.
According to the memories of Liu Ying's previous life, Liu Bang, the son of heaven who drove the expedition and pacified the rebellion of Chen Xuan, the prime minister, was indeed scheming, and even almost staged a 'Pingcheng Battle 2.0' with the Huns, so that Chen Ying's rebellion was quelled with difficulty.
In order to quell Chen Feng's rebellion, even Liu Bang's remaining life was consumed.
"Hmmm······"
"In this life, it should be a similar situation······
Thinking to herself, Liu Ying couldn't help but tighten her clothes a little, and accompanied by Lu Shizhi, she walked from the north gate of the city and stepped into Changlingyi.
It's not that Liu Ying is interested in Changlingyi and Tian's 'broken' house, but because of some factors that are unwritten, but have to be considered.
——Changlingyi, Liu Ying's emperor's father, is the mausoleum of today's son Liu Bang······
Although Liu Bangshang is still alive, as a son, especially as a prince, fresh clothes and angry horses and fanfare pass through Changlingyi, and it is a bit inappropriate to spread it out.
After all, no matter how you say it, today's crown prince Liu Ying is still theoretically still in the 'investigation period', although the storage position is actually as stable as Mount Tai, but as long as Liu Bang is alive, then theoretically, Liu Ying's storage position can only be said to be 'nine out of nine will not have problems'.
Only when Liu Bang, the son of heaven, closes his eyes, Liu Ying's buttocks flap sits on the imperial couch in Changle Palace, and the heirloom jade seal made of He's bi is tied around his waist, and he has been worshiped by a hundred officials and marquis, and then goes to the Taimiao of Emperor Liu Xuan and the ancestral hall of the Liu family to worship his ancestors, can it be said that it is foolproof.
Even the tattered carriage, Liu Ying didn't dare to sit on it, and Liu Yingzi didn't dare to take all the five hundred guards with him.
I thought of taking twenty or thirty people with me, and the rest of the people detoured from outside Changlingyi to meet outside the South City Gate, but they were strongly opposed by Lu Shizhi.
couldn't resist Lu Shizhi's bullish temper, Liu Ying talked openly and secretly for a while, and the uncle and nephew each took a step back.
- Thirty men were left with him, and the rest were divided into thirty or fifty people each, pretending to be patrolling soldiers, and passed through Changlingyi in order.
But even so, Lu Shizhi did not relax his vigilance, answering Liu Ying's questions from time to time, but his eyes were like eagles and falcons, constantly scanning the sides of the street with vigilance.
Liu Ying was not so nervous, and chatted with Lu Shizhi in a relaxed and comfortable manner.
"Previously, when my nephew heard that Changlingyi had to move tens of thousands of households in Kanto, nearly 100,000 people; and Tian's family, but one of these tens of thousands of households. ”
"The Tian family is already a businessman, and there are tens of thousands of remaining households in Changling, what do they do for their livelihood?"
Hearing Liu Ying's question, Lu Shizhi was still the same single-minded, waiting for Liu Ying with his mouth, and his eyes scanned the surroundings.
"I don't know if I know about it."
"Xiao Xiangguo moved from the Kanto region to Changlingyi, and he is not the heir of the Dutian clan and other former countries, or he is a powerful giant."
"Qin swept Liuhe, and it had already made the Kanto rich and powerful not have one out of ten, and His Majesty obeyed the order, first to fight for Qin, and then to conquer Xiang Yu, and the Kanto region has been in turmoil for nearly ten years."
"In the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, when Xiang Yu killed the Wujiang River, there were only a handful of wealthy families in the Kanto region."
As he spoke, Lu Shizhi's guard eased slightly.
After looking around for a long time, he didn't find the figure of a 'suspicious person' on both sides of the street, and Lu Shizhi's attention slowly returned to Liu Ying's question.
"And His Majesty ordered Xiao Xiang to move from the Kanto to Changlingyi, except for the heirs of the Six Kingdoms and thousands of powerful families in the Kanto region, the rest are mostly meritorious marquis, nobles, courtiers, and hundreds of officials."
"Your Majesty's intention at that time was that Changlingyi was close to Chang'an, and the relatives of the Marquis and Baiguan were moved to Changlingyi, so as not to make them homesick, and after a hundred years, Your Majesty could be in Changlingyi and guard His Majesty's mausoleum."
"However, today, there are almost no meritorious marquis and nobles, courtiers and hundreds of officials who live in Changlingyi."
"——For example, the Marquis of Yu, the Marquis of Ruyin and the Shaofu, etc., all held court positions, and most of them lived near Chang'an;"
"The Marquis of Wuyang, the Marquis of Jiang, etc., are from rich backgrounds, and the fathers who have no job will settle down in Xinfeng."
"And the officials of the thousand stones and six hundred stones in the court, and also settled in Weinan, in order to get close to Chang'an's convenience (biàn) and ······"
Hearing Lu Shizhi's analysis, Liu Ying couldn't help but raise the corners of her eyebrows slightly, stretched out her arm with a puzzled face, and swept it slightly on both sides of her body.
"The marquis and hundreds of officials in the court all have other residences, and Changlingyi should be sparsely populated."
"Why are people coming and going on the streets, and the prosperity is better than Chang'an?"
Unexpectedly, when the Lu family heard this, his face, which had just relaxed, faintly took on a little contemplation.
"Honored by the family."
"Those who often live in Changlingyi today, but after the six royal families, there are thousands of powerful households in Kanto."
"And people come and go in Changlingyi, in addition to the prosperity of thousands of families, it is between this generation, the wind of slavery is extremely prosperous······"
As he spoke, Lu Shizhi couldn't help but put his hands behind his back, frowned slightly, and sighed leisurely.
"Let's just say this, the Changling Tian clan who wants to govern the family, its house sits on the ground within a radius of 100 steps, even if it is slightly wider than the Phoenix Hall of the Taigong Palace on the home!"
"Although there are only seventeen men in his house, there are many concubines and slaves."
"According to rumors: In Tianfu, there are no less than 100 people in Zhao Ji, who is good at singing and dancing!"
"What's more, in addition to the hundreds of dancing girls and hundreds of slaves in the house, the Tian family has sixteen granaries outside, each with dozens of families, armed with knives and sticks!"
"If you count it carefully, the Tian family is only seventeen men, but the slaves, I am afraid that there are no less than five hundred······"
Listening to Lu Shidao's words, Rao expected Tian's 'drunken gold fan', and Liu Ying's eyes widened slightly.
"There are hundreds of dancing girls, but no less than five hundred?"
"Tut-tut······"
I have to say that even as a prince, Liu Ying was almost shocked when she heard these two numbers.
The dancing girl, as the name suggests, is a woman who is specially used by wealthy families to enjoy the dance before and after tea, as well as some unspeakable uses.
Different from slaves in the ordinary sense, this kind of group basically does not have to engage in any labor in the high gate, and only needs to make the master happy.
- Well, through various ways, make the master happy.
And such a person, in a sense, can also be understood as a 'concubine'.
In other words, the Changling Tian clan is only seventeen males, and they have hundreds of concubines.
As for the five hundred slaves, not to mention.
——A few months ago, Liu Ying reached out to the court's meritorious officials to ask for private slaves in the family because of the repair of Zheng Guoqu, and Xiao He, the prime minister who produced the most, was only one hundred and twenty strong men!
As for the incumbent Jiuqing, the only Shaofu Yangchengyan who did not have the Marquis of Che was the only one who had a pitiful seventeen people.
Liu Ying even heard that even these seventeen people, there are several of them, and they are distant cousins that Yang Chengyan temporarily found!
If you really want to talk about it, I am afraid that the only person who can wrestle with the wealth and grandeur of the Tian family, who has hundreds of dancing girls and at least 500 slaves, is Liu Ying's eldest brother, who is far away in Linzi, the capital of Qi, and has seventy-three cities in Qi.
Just as he was thinking about it, he felt that Lu Shizhi seemed to slow down slightly, and Liu Ying involuntarily turned his head.
Seeing Lu Shizhi raise his head slightly behind his back, Liu Ying also turned around again, and finally saw the legendary mansion known as the 'palace comparison'.
Almost in a moment, Liu Ying's attention shifted from the two stone pixiu outside the main gate of Tianfu to the row of carriages parked on the side of the door.
"Hey ······"
suddenly sneered, and saw Liu Ying turn around with deep meaning on his face and look at Lu Shizhi, who had already gritted his teeth.
"Uncle Fang just said: The private slaves of the Changling Tian family should be more than 500 people?"
When Lu Shizhi nodded without hesitation, he saw Liu Yingyin smiling compassionately.
Xiao Xiang's "Han Law" is a saying: Whoever holds slaves, the slaves should be paid at the age of the year; One slave, five years of money, in order to enter the Shaofu money. ”
"In this way, the Changlingtian clan has no less than five hundred slaves, and the slaves paid at that age are counted as two thousand five hundred; Another one hundred and twenty dollars, two thousand five hundred, a bento is three hundred thousand dollars! ”
"I don't know if in the past few years, Shaofu has been a slave of 300,000 yuan per year since the Changlingtian clan?"
Hearing that Liu Ying mentioned 'slave calculation', Lu Shizhi first subconsciously bowed his head.
Hearing Liu Ying's latter question, Lu Shizhi gritted his teeth again and looked at the row of palatial carriages parked outside Tianfu.
"No!"
"Last year, the minister also heard Shaofu crying to His Majesty: Shaofu's internal money, the annual slavery is less than one million dollars!"
"Even if there are millions of them, most of them are from the court's meritorious marquis and nobles, and the ministers have never heard the words of the Yang Shaofu, and there are slaves who calculate the Changlingyi and enter the Shaofu!"
After saying that, Lu Shizhi seemed to think of something, and his face stagnated for a moment, before he lowered his voice again and moved his body closer to Liu Ying.
"Can the family want to start with this matter to cure the crime of the Tian clan?"
Hearing this, Liu Ying only smiled and shook her head.
"It's just an unpaid slave, if you punish it in this way, it's just a fine, and it's too cheap for the Tian clan······"
Shout!
As soon as Liu Ying was halfway through his words, he heard a sharp sound of breaking wind in the air!
"Assassin !!"
Subconsciously hissed, and when Lu Shizhi's face changed greatly, he lowered his head, but saw that between Liu Ying's tightly bitten lips, a few drops of scarlet slowly flowed!
"Ming Di !!!!!"
"Escort !!!!!!!!!!!"
After two more roars in succession, Lu Shizhi didn't care about taking care of Liu Ying's injuries, stood in front of Liu Ying with a panicked face, and surrounded Liu Ying with the accompanying guards.
He was anxiously looking at the janitorial who was hurrying to his side, and Lu Shizhi seemed to hear Liu Ying's slightly weak murmur behind him.
"Tian's Crime ······"
"Cough cough ···········"
